Originally Posted by new tech guy Hi all  . Sorry almost missed your post there Speakers. Yes they are very simple. Take a bit of work to write and work out any bugs in your code. Its similar to programming. But its just a simple script that the system's command line interface runs. The original idea for my local backups (to my NAS) in a batch was given to me by Jstergis and i got his code for it. Over time i updated it to suit my needs and tweaked things here and there. Now i have an automated batch that automatically logs into my NAS, updates directories maintaining three backup versions, does a user file backup, then ends. Then on the one desktop i have another batch that i wrote to download the first backup in the versions (that restriction is to cut down file size) and it uploads them to the ftp also maintaining three versions. The nice part about the batch is that once scheduled with task scheduler and all bugs are worked out of it, it is a flawless easy and simple solution that requires no user intervention. The offsite one is a little different as the commands are different and im noticing some strange behavior which may need some debugging. As of now, however, the code is working perfectly fine. The offsite will first zip the files up to a password protected rar archive using winrar's commandline utility and save the .rar files local. At that point the ftp command is initiated which can be set to run a seperate script which is what is set up to log into the ftp and perform the uploading. At that point it quits the ftp and returns to the original batch which will delete the .rar files from the local computer and quit. | Gee!, Looks like you got that one figured out very nicely!
Yeah, I was reccomeded to use a batch script and do a native backup.
I have also needed it for several other things, but never did figure out how to lol.
Going by how useful yours is I will go learn about it now I s'pose!
Thanks for all the info

Thanks for all the info   | If you wanted the code i use, its not a problem for me to pc  . My offsite is still quirky a little as it gets glitchy doing my sister's stuff and the site i use seems to have a slow downstream that stands still at like 1kbps so im gonna have to either get them to fix it or find another place.
